November is a time to acknowledge and celebrate the rich and diverse cultures, traditions, and histories of Native Americans.

To enhance safety and security protocols, RISD is implementing student badges this year for all elementary students.

The district is implementing a new Richardson ISD Code of Civility this school year to set expectations for how students, parents, employees, and visitors treat and interact with each other while at school or communicating about school-related activities.

All parents and guardians are strongly encouraged to become familiar with how RISD schools approach safety and security.

RISD provides bus service for students who live more than two miles away from their home campus.
